Description
A β2-adrenergic receptor agonist; an active metabolite of bambuterol; binds to β1-, β2-, and β3-ARs (Ki = 31.3, 15.4, and 79.8 nM, respectively); selectively increases adenylyl cyclase activity in CHO cell membranes expressing recombinant human β2- or β3- over β1-ARs at concentrations 100-fold greater than the respective Ki values; inhibits airway obstruction induced by methacholine or LTD4 in anesthetized guinea pigs
